G B Library Book Club meets monthly

The Gulf Breeze Library Book Club holds the meetings on third Wednesday of each month, at 5:30 pm at the Gulf Breeze Library, 1060 Shoreline Drive. The August book selection was "The Assistant" by Bernard Malamud. Book selections are both fiction and non-fiction, some are 'classics' and some are recent best sellers.

The group tries to get as much variety in the books as possible to make it enlightening and fun. The book selection list is printed out for anyone to see at the library desk. The staff will help if you ask. The meetings are lead by a different member each month. The monthly provides a brief overview of the author and critiques of the book.

Then, each member is invited to comment on likes and dislikes, the plot, the characters, the writing style, or the relevance it may have in our own families or community. The Club has 15 members, with about 6-10 attending each month.

The discussions are casual and each person is respected and each opinion is heard. There are no membership dues as of this writing. The Club would just like to add your e-mail address to their membership list to include you when information is sent out. The Club welcomes everyone who likes to read to join the discussion.
